What is a compact car?

Compact or small family cars are a group which is larger than subcompacts but smaller than mid-size cars.

They are in a so-called C-segment (the largest of the small cars), usually easy to drive, maneuver and park, that
is why compact cars are perfect for in-town travels with large traffic jams.

Despite the widespread belief that compact cars are designed as cheap econoboxes, we personally would rather
agree with the millions of drivers who find compact cars an effective alternative to a larger vehicle, and
fuel-efficient way to travel.

Compact cars and their distinctive features:

The name of the car group – compact – speaks for itself.

It accommodates up to 5 people and can carry up to 3 suitcases.

Compact cars vs economy cars

Basically, there are no big differences between compact cars and economy ones.

compact cars are slightly pricier and larger than economy ones

a compact car can fit in one more luggage unit than an economy car, that’s why compacts are more
comfortable.

Driver’s age requirements

If you hire a van, standard, luxurious or estate car and you’re under 25, prepare to pay a young driver’s
surcharge. Age range varies depending on the company that provides you with a rental car and the country as laws
are different everywhere.

Therefore, you should read about the terms of the lease and the age limits, as well as to see what the amount of
additional payments is if you are younger or older than it is required.

In case of renting compact cars, you may not worry about the conditions as they are often even more than loyal,
and you will hardly have to pay anything extra.

*Note! Special accessories are the subject of availability, so request for them in
advance. Additional driver’s surcharges vary and mentioned on rental conditions of each supplier in Torreon - Airport [TRC], Mexico.

Can I rent a particular car model?

When you request for a compact car, you’ll receive one. Car rental company guarantees you a car from a certain
car group. But, if you see the icon “Guaranteed car model”, you may no longer worry about that as you’ll get the
car you ordered.

When you confirm you booking, don’t forget to print a voucher. There you’ll see a contact number, you can call
and find out whether you’ll get a car you want or not.

Sometimes you can get a free upgrade – compact cars can be replaces with medium-sized ones for the same price.
Remember that saving on a car model you might spend more on fuel.
